Cultures of Power in Post-Communist Russia: An Analysis of Elite Political Discourse
Urban, Michael (University of California, Santa Cruz)
Using extensive interviews with top Russian political figures, this book identifies a political discourse that enables certain things to be communicated while ruling out others. He shows that Russian elites speak a language that not only militates against mutual understanding and consensus, but encourages authoritarian forms of political power.
